Matching Gift Challenge

​

The world seems smaller today than it did last month. Suddenly, no matter who you are or where you live, we are all experiencing something together. We share in the hope for an effective vaccine and are united in our thoughts and prayers for the safety and good health of our family, friends, neighbors and those we will never know.

Amidst the challenging realities of the COVID situation, we are all looking for good news, and we have some to share with you today. Donors Linda and Carl Kuhnen are deeply concerned about the situation facing families in poverty during this unsettled time. They know MAM helps the most vulnerable in our community and they want to support this effort to the largest extent, so they have generously provided a Matching Challenge Grant to inspire you to make a gift of your own!

For every dollar you give, they will match it with their dollar, for a maximum of $100,000!

Although we are all dealing with this same unpredictable virus, not everyone in our community is equally equipped to deal with the fallout. Some are anxiously awaiting an unemployment or stimulus check. Others know there is no check coming and no job to return to. Hundreds of our neighbors are fearful and uncertain about how they will keep a roof over their family’s heads and food on the table. We can help change that – together.

These families need us now more than ever. Please be inspired by Linda and Carl’s challenge and make a gift that will be doubled, and will ensure twice as many families have the basic needs to get through this crisis and rise up to meet their own next challenge.

Thank you, in advance, for your serious consideration during this difficult time.
